What it is

The Ideal 173023 is an ignition electrode used on Ideal Commercial appliances. It sits at the burner and provides the spark that lights the gas at start-up, working alongside the boiler's ignition circuit and flame sensing. This electrode is listed against Ideal Commercial Imax Plus models and the wider Ideal Commercial parts range.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • The appliance reaches the ignition stage but the burner does not light
  • Repeated lockouts or ignition fault codes on start-up
  • No visible spark at the electrode when the ignition sequence runs
  • Cracks, heavy sooting or a damaged ceramic insulator on the electrode
  • Erratic lighting, with the burner igniting intermittently or not at all

Before you order

  • Check the existing electrode against the previous number 95250624 where the part has been replaced before
  • This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
